ABSTRACT:
A compound that promotes the ubiquitination of a protein comprising the same or substantially the same amino acid sequence as the amino acid sequence shown by SEQ ID NO:1, SEQ ID NO:2 or SEQ ID NO:3 or a partial peptide thereof or a salt thereof, or a salt thereof, a compound that promotes the degradation, by proteasome, of the protein or a partial peptide thereof or a salt thereof, or a salt thereof, and the like can be used as, for example, prophylactic/therapeutic agents for neurodegenerative disease. Also, a protein comprising the same or substantially the same amino acid sequence as the amino acid sequence shown by SEQ ID NO:1, SEQ ID NO:2 or SEQ ID NO:3 or a partial peptide thereof or a salt thereof and the like are useful for screening for a compound having prophylactic/therapeutic action on neurodegenerative disease and the like or a salt thereof.
